NetApp sdcli disk list to CSV with Powershell

#NetApp #sdcli #Powershell

So I have been breaking playing around with Jetstress, NetApp filers and Cisco UCS.  Not have much fun or luck, as I just cant get the damn thing to pass even a simple test.  But that is another story!

I have been looking at sdcli and getting some powershell automation going, and I wanted to find out details of all the disks connected to my severs.  Now sdcli is the worst thing in the word for getting anything decent out, so I wrote the following.  Basically run it on a server with NetApp SnapDrive and it will give you a CSV file with the output of sdcli disk list.  Shweet ;-)   It crude but effective!

Enjoy

    Does this have proper add-member statements to construct an object?

  2. Hi Joe,

    I’ve same issue and spent little time over it. Apparently it’s because of variable set at top is empty as invoke command didn’t return any value.

    I took other way around and it works like charm to me. Also gives an advantage to run same script for remote servers in domain.
    (provided PSRemoting in enabled –> “Enable-PSRemoting -Force” )

    $diskInfo = invoke-command -computername “<>” -scriptblock { sdcli disk list }
    $diskInfo = @()

    Cheers!

  3. No, you need to “” put the line $tmpsdcliDiskListMatrix = @() on a new line.
    And you need to replace all “ and ” with the same ” (use the notepad replace function for that). Works for me.

    Only having a problem to filter the output.
    I would like to only get the drive letters, nothing more.
    Must be possible true a simple command line…
